HiYa
Its a shame u cant change your dimensions a tad
like width for hieght would be brilliant
Your fan if u stick it in a tube then you will lose CFM from it, unless its a linear type fan.
And yes a fan for ventilation is a must
the seeds will germinate in dark or light, a mate of mine sticks em in the fridge to germinate he says its quicker that way, still using the wet paper on a dish routine.
your lightin personally i would use a lot more but if your book says thas enough then fine carry on, i think its somewhere around 3.5 thousand lumens per sq foot for flowerin puposes, that can always be checked in the lightin forum.Lookin at your Sq footage then u got summit like 950 lumens per sq foot that is a bit on the low side i think.
Reflectors, Plain white emulsion is the best, window shades might eat a few lumens.
if your temps are ok then keep doors closed when u r home
thatl stop losin lumens.
S.O.G is about the only way with your head hieght
Good luck
any probs gissa shout an we will c if we can help ya
